Darn.  I don't care for it.  Upon investigation into the notes, it's the leather accord that isn't setting well with me.  I like some leather but, from what I've read, I like a soft supple suede vs a deep dark leather (that this is).  I'm not detecting the oud.  I was so looking forward to this but back it goes.  My husband has worn something similar in the past.

 That's disappointing, but sometimes it's  risky to order fragrances without testing them first. Descriptions don't always help to determine scent. 

Maybe with Replica it's best to stay with fragrances you already know. That way there are no surprises.

Referring to another thread: the Kiehl's and Glow Recipe you ordered are both toners, so you do use them together or on different days? I'm curious if two separate toners can be used at the same time.

I don't live anywhere near a big city.  And since Covid, two knee surgeries, sciatica/back pain and now a heart attack, I'm pretty satisfied with shopping from home.  I will continue to blind buy fragrances and hope for the best.  I can only think of two I've returned in a very long time.

Kiehl's and Glow Recipe

Yes, they are both toners/essences as is the Dr C Kombucha.  I think the Snail Snot is also considered an essence.  I use them together in the same routines.   Glow Recipe is used in the AM with Dr C, Keihls and others.  If  you think it's harmful in anyway, it's not.  I require a lot of hydration and I like the different ingredients they each offer.  If I go overboard with any of my skincare, it works for me!

@monicakm   sorry "Under the Stars" didn't work out, but there are so many other wonderful fragrances in the world just waiting to be discovered, right?

Absolutely!  I've just been waiting for this one to even be listed for sale anywhere.  I'm talking MONTHS they were teasing us with it.  "Under the Stars" should in no way smell like a saw mill
